In honour of its recent retirement and site activity, I wheeled out a few of Bill Holker's model for display in the sun. Hatches open and away we go...

That Cranberry looks really nice with those paints- does it have a VC? and if so.. what's it like?

Cheers
Dan.

I'm pretty sure it has a VC, but a very sparse one. Certainly not fully functional. The exterior model is where it's at!

Oh and I recommend the other Canberra's too; the B.2, TT.18, T.17 and B(I)8. And of course, the wonderful repaints from Steve's site!

Cheers gents, although I can't speak for the vc, as I rarely use it. I have to agree with Tweek, Bill and Paul Foster have done a real credit to the old bird with a superb range of Cranberries. As I've mentioned in some other posts, all we need now is the T.4 trainer and T.11 interceptor nose cone to complete the bulk of the main variants.

I saw that we now have the Swedish TP.52 variant, but this features a rounded nose cose to the standard T.11 nose cone, and would not be accurate for RAF models. Any takers?
